Greek Island Hopping (Pride)

Hello, island lovers! Ready to explore Greece's best islands and all their LGBTQIA+ hotspots, meeting LGBTQIA+ locals along the way too? Same. First up, your Trip Manager will give you a breakdown of what to expect over the next 10 days, then you'll get to know your fellow travellers in style with an included welcome dinner.

With no time to waste, we'll start our Greek island hopping adventures today with our first destination: Mykonos. Let's do this! Two nights on the island of Mykonos, how did we get so lucky? Even the boat ride across the Aegean will have you awe struck and in love.

Tonight, you'll have the option to join an exploration of Mykonos by night on a locally guided walking tour of the town's cobbled streets.

Get ready for a full day to explore Greece's LGBTQIA+ capital. The day is yours to soak up the sunshine and play in the sea. Doesn't get much better than this...

This morning we're on to our next Greek island, Paros. Let's spare a thought for all those travellers who only get to visit just one Greek Island, and then remember how lucky we are. Beaches, naturally sculpted swimming coves, a Byzantine church and traditional villages: we must be in Paros. You're free to get into the sun and sea vibes. Feel like exploring even further? Sign up for an optional trip to a local, family-run winery before heading to a local village and finishing off in the fishing village of Naoussa.

Another day, another Greek Island delight. Hold tight - today you have the chance to visit Paros and some of the stunning islands around it - for a full day of sunbathing, swimming, relaxing, soaking-up-the-sunshining. Later tonight, we'll tuck into an included dinner at a local restaurant, before heading out to sample the local nightlife.

Paros, it's been magical – but today we're taking to the seas again, this time in search of Greece's most insta-famous island: Santorini. Santorini, we have arrived! Tonight you'll have the chance to join us on a cruise and take in the iconic Fira.

Rise and shine, Greek Island travellers! The island of Santorini won't explore itself. Today is your day to take a swim at Perissa Beach, eat the local specialty of fried tomato balls known as domatokeftedes, or roam and explore. You can even opt to take a visit to incredible Oia followed by a visit to the black sand beach of Santorini, or sign up to attend a Greek wedding (some plates will be sacrificed...).

A bit more rugged and remote than Santorini and Mykonos, Ios will prove a nice change of scenery for our final Island night as we catch an early ferry. And thankfully, there will be no change in the good vibes or the time spent ocean side. Before we join together for an included dinner tonight, now is your chance to get some adrenaline in with a speedboat safari. It's a free evening, so you're going to need to fuel if you want to hit the party scene.

Wave goodbye to the dreamy islands of Greece. But no need to shed tears just yet. After one final boat ride this morning, we're heading back to Athens. We've touched down in Athens! Throw on your most vibrant outfit, and hit the streets to celebrate all things Pride.

Ready for one more dose of Athens and one last chance to hang out together? We'll soak up the last rays of the Mediterranean sun this afternoon before an optional farewell dinner together.

And just like that, it's the final day of our Greek islands trip. This morning, you have the option to check out the ruins of the Acropolis, and then it's sadly time to say those goodbyes. As sad as they are, at least you have the memories. (and another 200 Contiki trips to jump aboard!). Make the most of your last free breakfast before you kick on to your next port of call.
